Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique was applied to detect cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA. Two pairs of synthetic oligonucleotide primers were used to amplify DNA from the immediate early 1 and the late antigen genes of CMV, respectively. Either primer sets could detect as few as 0.01 plaque-forming
Adenovirus can establish persistent infections which may reactivate and cause disease in immunocompromised hosts. Lymphocytes have been postulated to serve as a site of adenoviral persistence based upon the ability to isolate adenovirus from tonsils and to detect adenovirus DNA by Southern blot hybr
The clinical performance of a modified polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing algorithm was evaluated for confirming the presence of HIV-1 proviral DNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. A whole cell lysate, rather than phenol-purified DNA, was used for PCR amplification, under systematically o
